Launch at startup¶
Toggle Launch at startup to automatically start ExtraDock when you log in to your Mac.
Requires macOS 13 or later.
App Mode¶
Choose how ExtraDock appears in your system:

Dock App Only — ExtraDock appears as a regular app in the macOS Dock
Menu Bar + Dock Icon — Both (default)
Hide native macOS Dock¶
Toggle Hide native macOS Dock to suppress the built-in Apple Dock while ExtraDock is running. ExtraDock applies a deep auto-hide setting to the native Dock process. Turn this off anytime to restore your previous Dock behavior.
Show management window on launch¶
Toggle Show management window on launch to automatically open the management window every time ExtraDock starts. Useful during initial setup; you can disable it once your docks are configured.
